For anyone with the vaguest interest.

March the 12th in Fareham.


Fareham by meekon5, on Flickr.

As soon as we have some detail we'll set it here.

(Details to follow here, hopefully Ed can put down some detail as this one is on his turf).

Transfer thread from here.

All comers welcome.

Attending so far:

Rev Ed C
Rev Klaus
Rev Meekon5

An evening option from Rev kiteboysi

Unfortunately Rev Zen Dog is unable to do the 12th. (Perhaps if we try for a six month meet up?)

Well, as long as 12th in the afternoon/evening is good for all involved, I can get us a good spot in a good pub.  Details to follow in the next few days, pending any more changes.

If no one has objected in the next 36 hours, I'll sort out the location/direction and issue my mobile number to anyone who's not already got it.

Sorry mate didn't mean to dump this on you.

We can do maps and stuff as and when needed.

Not yet but we re so badly organised that it would probably expire the group before we'd done one meeting.

It's an open meeting held in a public place (no weapons please).

Seriously three of us managed the last one, so the more the merrier.

It's cool, it's just that I was only double 12-hour nights this weekend, and I've only just woken up after my modest 6-hour sleep for the day (hence the 36 hours).

Now I'm sort of awake and almost back on a daylight pattern, I can set to do some better planning in the next week.  Well, I say better, I think this is as good as it gets for us :)

The pub of choice is 5 minutes walk from the station, and 17 minutes hard crawl (15 with friendly, helpful kicking).  We stay away from the town centre the the normies will not bother us.  We are doors away from a nice quiet little Chinese restaurant that requires no booking.

Maps are available, but I'm willing to meet people from the station.  Apparently last year we managed to spot each other from across a crowded bowling alley with zero effort despite not knowing what the other looked like.  I might have been the fact that we were the only three with beards!

So everyone bring a beard then?

BTW is this going to be an afternoon/evening do?

Actually if you don't mind I can only do the early evening.

If the rest of you want to meet up earlier and I'll join you somewhere on the way.

After 1700 seems to suit all your late-comers then.  Anyone wanting to make it earlier can call me as needed or just let me know when you're on the train and give me an ETA.  I'm only 10-15 mins walk from the station in my onw humble hovel.

I'm afraid I'm having lunch with my Dad, who I haven't seen in ages so unfortunately that takes precedence.

1700hrs is good for me.

So do we meet at the station and go on from there?

If everyone lets me know when they're arriving, I'll be at the station to shepherd them on the pub.  I assume you and Klaus are arriving together at around 1700, and then Kiteboysi I'll go back for a little while after I guess.

Which reminds me... Kitboysi, I'm sending you my mobile number in a private forum mail so you can let me know :)
